Today, Kingswood is still a small school, serving 430 students. Although the school was renovated in 2004 - leaving few visible reminders of the Kingswood I remember - there was something about the spirit of the school that remained and was warming to see. I was excited to visit Kingswood and hoped to see some of the scenes that are so bright in my mind. The rest, as they say, is history and the year-round program took off, for better or for worse. Morrisville was then "the nation's first multi-track magnet year-round school." My second-grade year, most of the student body and staff from Kingswood were moved to Morrisville and we were divided amongst the four tracks. The pilot program was such a success that in 1991, the district built a new elementary school - Morrisville Elementary - which was large enough to meet the increasing demand for the year-round program (although not entirely large enough, as I still remember having some classes in trailers). The district repurposed an old middle school to house the single-track program, and Kingswood Elementary became the first year-round magnet school in the nation. According to an article that my mom saved from the Jissue of The Cary News, the school "opened its doors for the first day of school for about 260 students." The first two years of Wake County's year-round program took place in that old school. When I attended Kingswood Elementary in Cary as a kindergartener in 1989, it was a pilot year for Wake County's year-round program.
